Installing the Frame, Insulation, and Wall Panels
I have finally installed the inner walls. I cut 2x4 studs for the ribs the same way I did for the floor. I nailed these to the wall panels with finishing nails, just to hold them in place. Then I put them in place, lining up the studs with the sections in between the windows, so as to not interfere with the lowering of the windows. Scott drilled through the panel, the stud, and the sheet metal wall of the bus, 3 holes per stud. Then I cut insulation to fit, and bolted the wall to the bus. Scott will be dremeling off the long bolt ends to accept a bolt cap, so it'll look nicer than just a bolt sticking out of
the wall.

metal and wall panel, as well as the stud and insulation behind the panel
